How I Built a Hybrid Rust + C++ AI Active Shield for Kernel-Level Attack Mitigation

The Solution: Cyber Aura

Traditional Python or Go parsers drain massive enterprise server CPU overhead just by scanning logs post-attack. We solved this at the kernel level.

Core Architecture:

  • Rust Sniffer Core: Hooks directly into Linux inotify kernel APIs to stream-parse logs with zero delay.
  • C++ AI Mutation Layer: A heuristic engine parsing complex, hex-encoded payloads (SQLi/Directory Traversal).
  • Instant UFW Firewall: Automated bans within milliseconds in root daemon mode.
